You must have missed some of the other posts regarding their PS3 costs. Eventhough they are trying to drop costs by $100 which seems quite possible, they will still be losing lots of money on the consoles. Sony is not dumb, they spend a lot of money studying the consumer; they know what we are willing to pay. I doubt Sony will be dropping the price of the 60GB PS3 anytime soon, it would be a foolish move. The $600 price tag for what you get is a steal and evenone who got one knows that. Either way, this holiday season, the PS3 will outsell the Wii and 360, especially being that POTC, Spiderman, and the Matrix will be out on Blu-ray by then. In addition to that, the PS3 will actually have a good game arsenal. If they lower the price by this holiday season, they will suffer from a percieved cheap company image by the consumer. Current owners would be furious and everyone would lose!
